Jailer 2: Body Double Claims Only Hands, Legs Used
21 Oct
Summary
- Body double Jobi Kodakara stated only his hands and legs were used in Jailer 2.
- Action director confirmed Mohanlal performed the climax car scene himself.
- Jailer 2 achieved over INR 541 crore worldwide by its sixth day.

Jailer 2, released worldwide on October 15, 2026, is facing a new controversy. Body double Jobi Kodakara claims only his hands and legs were used for Mohanlal's character, Mathew, with his face omitted from the final cut.
Kodakara, a mimicry artist, shared this in a recent interview, adding to discussions about Mohanlal's reduced screen presence. He expressed happiness at working on the project and meeting Rajinikanth.
Conversely, action director Chethan D'Souza confirmed Mohanlal personally performed the climax car scene. This follows criticism from Mohanlal's stylist, Jishad Shamsudeen, about deleted scenes involving the superstar.
Despite these internal debates, Nelson Dilipkumar's Jailer 2, produced by Sun Pictures, has been a box-office triumph, earning over INR 541 crore globally within six days of its release.
